I don't think Smith would stand a chance in hell against Silva. Anderson would most likely avoid his punches as if they were moving in slow motion.
If I had to compare this to another fight of Anderson's I think it would be most like Silva/Leben.
Anderson "The Spider" Silva
Scott "Hands of Steel" Smith
I dont know, but it'd be nasty
I know I know I know.
this has CATASTROPHE written all over it with Anderson making quick work of Scott.
But isnt that the story that is intriguing in this?
That's to be said about all of Scott Smiths opponents. This man has been beaten more than Argentina in a war.
But... He comes back and wins.
I make the argument that the reason he lost so easily to Nick Diaz is because Nick never gave him the chance to get off. Nick peppered him with superb boxing combinations and never allowed Smith to get close. Then he got it on the ground and subbed Smith.
Knowing Anderson? I think he'd toy with Smith, maybe drop him a few times? but...
What IF?
IF?
What IF, Smith could manage to survive a storm by Anderson Silva and land that ONE SHOT that has obviously been his trademark?
Break this fight down FF cause it's alot less silly than those that said Cung Le vs Anderson would be fun

[40daysZero40'sKrav911] - I'd like to see more Kickboxing, which HDNet has only now begun to show reruns of the big K-1 stuff and I'm getting off on that big time.
Krav, I question your sobriety here. IF he could survive an early storm and get off one good punch? Hell, that sounds like a punchers chance, nothing more.
And Cung Le/Silva comparisons are silly.
I questioned it myself while I was sober and said....
"But WHAT IF"?
After all, it's fantasy fights.
Man Anderson Silva IMO would kill Scott Smith.
BUt isnt that what we always say about Smith?
That's more where I was going with it.
Like Pulp Fiction. "COntemplating the What ifs"
Lol

Of course Scott Smith would win this. How is there any doubt?
I am sure Anderson would win, but ths would be a barn burner I think. How many punches to the skull could Silvas hands take before he breaks all his knuckles and he throws in the towel?
I don't know either Krav. This does have catastrophe written all over it but Smith has a TON of HEART and as always a puncher's chance.
